USES OF STRAW.
How 1t Can Be Made One OF the Import
ant Items OF Farm Economy.

How IT Can Be Made One OF the Import
ant Items OF Farm Economy.
The value of straw is too little taken
into account either on or off the farm.
Too many farmers seem to act on the
principle that it should be fed to cattle.
This is the least important of its uses.
Its value as food is so slight that cattle
fed exclusively on straw would die
about as soon as when fed on any such
substance, as dead leaves, for instance.
the only use of which is to properly
distend the stomach. The feeding use
of straw. therefore, is only in connec-
ton with concentrated food.
But there are other uses of the straw
of cereal grains which render it an i'm
portant integer in farm economy. One
of these is the covering of sheds. An
other and the most important is its use
as bedding for animals. Another use
to which it may be profitably used when
cold and winds are severe, is in form
ing an impervious barrier, by filing q
space foot wide between two rough
walls of sheds. These walls may be
made of any rough material, as slabs.
poles, but near enough together to pre-
vent the pulling out of the straw by
the animals. Thus sheds and stables
may be rendered as warm as much
more costly structures.
The use of straw is too much ignored
as a means of comfort used as bedding
for animals. Under sheds it should be
laid foot thick, and in the yards not
less than six inches. In stables that
are regularly cleanedit should be not
less than six inches in thickness. Thus
it will fully soak up and hold the liqu DIS
and retain them while spread on the
land to be plowed under. 1t takes no
more material as bedding six inches in
thickness than less. for only the soiled
portion need be removed. The added
value to the animals in conserving
warmth is not generally estimated.
1t not only keeps animals comfort
able, but as manure straw is valuable
principally in proportion to the liquid
manure it has soaked up. 1t will pay
to use literally in the directions we
have mentioned, and less SO as food
in winter than is generally practiced. L.
